Building both Release and Debug variants of C/C++ libraries with conda-forge #2820

Your question:

Hello,
I've recently been looking into using conda-forge as the source to install some C/C++ libraries needed for a project (on Windows, with MSVC). But for my use case, I want to be able to build both Release and Debug builds of libraries. I failed to find any documentation clarifying whether both Debug and Release builds are supported, or that it's just Release. Having looked into a few feedstocks, it seems like only release is built.

  1. Was there any documentation/FAQ I missed somewhere about conda-forge being only Release builds for C/C++ libraries?
  2. If there's no existing documentation on this, can there be clarification as to whether are plans to support debug builds?

In the meantime, I suppose one could create a python script to somehow deal with this, if using conda-forge... but outsourcing debug builds feels like extra steps that in an ideal world wouldn't be needed.
